	On the left is a [[Blight Post]], an [[List_of_Essential_Blueprints\|Essential building]] always available for construction at Veteran+ difficulties, used to produce {{rl\|Purging Fire}} which Blightfighters (villagers assigned to the Blight Post) then use to burn [[#Blightrot Cysts and Removal \| Blightrot Cysts]] during the [[Storm Season]]. Viceroys can also build a Hydrant to store extra Purging Fire near buildings that have grown a lot of Cysts. Purging Fire is made by using {{rl\|Coal}} , {{rl\|Sea Marrow}}, {{rl\|Oil}} or {{rl\|Wood}}.

	A single Blight Post without upgrades can handle a maximum of approximately 20-25 Blightrot Cysts per [[Storm Season]] on Veteran to Prestige 10 [[#Difficulty Modifiers influencing Blightrot \| difficulties]] (this number goes down to around 15 at Prestige 11 and above). Beyond this point, Blight Post upgrades or additional Blight Posts will be needed. ~~<br /><br />~~		A single Blight Post without upgrades can handle a maximum of approximately 20-25 Blightrot Cysts per [[Storm Season]] on Veteran to Prestige 10 [[#Difficulty Modifiers influencing Blightrot \| difficulties]] (this number goes down to around 15 at Prestige 11 and above).

	[[File:Hydrant icon.png\|left\|thumb\|150px\|A Hydrant]] The exact number of Cysts a Blight Post can handle varies depending on the movement speed of your Blightfighters, and also by Cyst location – the less time your Blightfighters spend walking between the Blight Post and the Cysts, the more Cysts they will be able to burn. A well-placed Hydrant will greatly reduce this travel time, and may be essential if the distance between your Blight Post and the infested buildings is too great.
